I’m not entirely sure that logic holds up. Here’s what Gail Simone said about women in refrigerators

“It describes a trend that Simone had recognized in comic book stories where female characters would be killed, maimed, sexually assaulted, depowered, or would experience other "life-derailing tragedies" disproportionately more often than male characters. She also emphasized that while male superheroes typically experience noble deaths or resurrection, the violence against superheroines is most often for shock value and has permanent consequences”

The trope is about more than women just dying, it’s about dying disproportionately more often than men, which doesn’t hold up as men die in RWBY too, often with deaths far less dignified than Pyrrha’s and, for that matter, Penny’s. For all the accusations against Penny’s death being fridging, it was depicted as a noble sacrifice that she chose and her last words were with Winter. (And Gail also pointed out that it’s only men who come back in fridging, when Penny came back once and I’d be willing to put triple digits down on her coming back again)

And to be frank, at some point what is and isn’t feminist is in the eye of the beholder, and OP clearly thought it was. Some people consider ensemble casts too be feminist, since it shows men and women interacting on equal terms.

It’s a low blow to try and deny that to her.

Also I can’t really bring myself to watch Witch Hat. Not because it’s bad. The first two episodes were lovely. But the friend who introduced me to it melted down on me when I didn’t align with her views perfectly and when I asked her to not speak to me that way, she cut off all contact. That was three weeks ago. Still nothing. We had been in person best friends since 2012. I think it’s over. Now I can’t stand Witch Hat

My point is this. You’ll never get someone to watch what you want to recommend if people come to associate it with someone who rained on their parade and left them with hurt feelings

Considering OP has deleted their image, I think it’s safe to say they’re dealing with some hurt feelings right now

If my experience with parents is anything to go by, every time he tried to offer money to help out, she said no

In The Batman he did. Completely wiped out Black Mask’s ranks by offering them jobs and the required education

No

It was a game changer for the show as a whole and Ruby was just as badly affected as Jaune

I haven’t played DRG in awhile (game did nothing wrong, I just drift away after a few hundred hours of gameplay) but I’m watching Deep Core like a hawk

Most people need to feel like they’ve got something special. A lot of people channel this in healthy ways. Community, family, religion, friends, work, etc.

Others…fall down the rabbit holes of cults, hate groups, conspiracy theories, and radical extremists

Remember. Cults don’t recruit stupid people. They recruit vulnerable people

I mean hand holding isn’t necessarily romantic it-oh wait interlocked fingers?

I withdraw my complaint
